The invention relates to a dye composition for keratin fibers, especially for human keratin fibers such as the hair, comprising, in a medium suitable for dyeing, at least one cationic direct dye of given formula, and at least one specific cationic or amphoteric substantive polymer.
The invention also relates to the dyeing processes and devices using said composition.
Two types of dyeing processes can be distinguished in the field of hair treatment. The first type of dyeing process is semi-permanent or temporary dyeing, or direct dyeing, which involves dyes capable of giving the hair's natural colour a more or less pronounced colour change that may withstand shampooing several times. These dyes are known as direct dyes; they can be used with or without an oxidizing agent. In the presence of an oxidizing agent, the aim is to obtain a lightening coloration. The lightening coloration is carried out by applying a mixture, prepared at the time of use, of a direct dye and an oxidizing agent to the hair. This mixture makes it possible to obtain, by lightening the melanin in the hair, an advantageous effect such as unifying the colour in the case of grey hair, or bringing out the colour in the case of naturally pigmented hair.
The second type of dyeing process is permanent dyeing or oxidation dyeing. This dyeing is carried out with dyes known as “oxidation” dyes comprising oxidation dye precursors and couplers. Oxidation dye precursors, commonly known as “oxidation bases,” are initially colourless or weakly coloured compounds that develop their dyeing power on the hair in the presence of oxidizing agents added at the time of use, leading to the formation of coloured compounds and dyes. The formation of these coloured compounds and dyes results either from an oxidative condensation of the “oxidation bases” with themselves, or from an oxidative condensation of the “oxidation bases” with coloration modifier compounds commonly known as “couplers,” which are generally present in the dye compositions used in oxidation dyeing.
To vary the shades obtained with the oxidation dyes, or to enrich them with glints, it is known to add direct dyes thereto.
Among the cationic direct dyes available in the field of dyeing keratin fibres, especially human keratin fibres, compounds which are already known are those whose structure is developed in the following text; nevertheless, these dyes have insufficient coloration properties, both with regard to the homogeneity of the colour distributed along the fibre (“unison”), where it is said that the coloration is too selective, and with regard to the staying power, or resistance to the various attacking factors to which the hair may be subjected (light, bad weather, shampooing).
After considerable research conducted in this field, the Applicants have now discovered that it is possible to obtain novel compositions for dyeing keratin fibres, which are capable of leading to less selective colorations and which are particularly resistant to the various attacking factors to which the hair may be subjected, by combining at least one specific cationic or amphoteric substantive polymer with at least one cationic direct dye known in the prior art and of formula (I) defined below.
This discovery forms the basis of the present invention.
Additional features and advantages of the invention are set forth in the description that follows, and, in part, will be apparent from the description or may be learned from the practice of the invention. The advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the dyeing compositions, processes, and kits particularly pointed out in the written description and claims.
Both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description of the invention are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the claimed invention.

Needless to say, a person skilled in the art will take care to select this or these optional complementary compound(s) such that the advantageous properties intrinsically associated with the dye composition according to the invention are not, or are not substantially, adversely affected by the addition(s) envisaged.
The dye composition according to the invention can be in various forms, such as in the form of liquids, shampoos, creams or gels or any other form suitable for dyeing keratin fibres, particularly human hair. The dye composition can be obtained by mixing, at the time of use, a composition, which may be in pulverulent form, comprising the cationic dye(s) with a composition containing the specific substantive polymer(s).
When the combination of the cationic direct dye (i) and the substantive polymer (ii) according to the invention is used in a composition intended for oxidation dyeing, i.e., one or more oxidation bases are used, optionally in the presence of one or more couplers, or when it is used in a composition intended for lightening direct dyeing, then the dye composition in accordance with the invention further comprises at least one oxidizing agent selected, for example, from hydrogen peroxide, urea peroxide, alkali metal bromates, persalts such as perborates and persulphates, and enzymes such as peroxidases, laccases and two-electron oxidoreductases. The use of hydrogen peroxide or enzymes is particularly preferred.
Another subject of the invention is a process for dyeing keratin fibres, especially human keratin fibres such as the hair, using the dye composition as defined above.
According to a first variant of this dyeing process in accordance with the invention, at least one dye composition as defined above is applied to the fibres, for a period sufficient to develop the desired coloration, after which the fibres are rinsed, optionally washed with shampoo, rinsed again and dried.
The time required to develop the coloration on the keratin fibres generally ranges from 3 to 60 minutes and even more precisely from 5 to 40 minutes.
According to a second variant of this dyeing process in accordance with the invention, at least one dye composition as defined above is applied to the fibres, for a period sufficient to develop the desired coloration, without final rinsing.
According to one specific embodiment of this dyeing process, and when the dye composition in accordance with the invention contains at least one oxidation base and at least one oxidizing agent, the dyeing process includes a preliminary step which comprises separately storing, on the one hand, a composition (A1) comprising, in a medium suitable for dyeing, at least one cationic direct dye (i) as defined above and at least one oxidation base, and, on the other hand, a composition (B1) comprising, in a medium suitable for dyeing, at least one oxidizing agent, and then in mixing them together at the time of use, after which this mixture is applied to the keratin fibres, composition (A1) or composition (B1) containing the cationic or amphoteric substantive polymer (ii) as defined above.
According to another specific embodiment of this dyeing process, and when the dye composition in accordance with the invention contains at least one oxidizing agent, the dyeing process includes a preliminary step which comprises separately storing, on the one hand, a composition (A2) comprising, in a medium suitable for dyeing, at least one cationic direct dye (i) as defined above, and, on the other hand, a composition (B2) comprising, in a medium suitable for dyeing, at least one oxidizing agent, and then in mixing them together at the time of use, after which this mixture is applied to the keratin fibres, composition (A2) or composition (B2) containing the cationic or amphoteric substantive polymer as defined above.
Another subject of the invention is a multi-compartment dyeing device or “kit” or any other multi-compartment packaging system, a first compartment of which contains composition (A1) or (A2) as defined above and a second compartment of which contains composition (B1) or (B2) as defined above. These devices can be equipped with means for delivering the desired mixture onto the hair, such as the devices described in patent FR-2,586,913, the disclosure of which is specifically incorporated by reference herein, in the name of the L'Oréal.
The present invention is further illustrated by the following examples which are designed to teach those of ordinary skill in the art how to practice the invention. The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention without limiting its scope.
